My experience with Bruce was fantastic. He quickly answered any questions. He ensures all your bases are covered. He's straight up with you too. Bruce will be my agent anytime I am in need of one. I advise you do the same. Thanks Bruce!
Bruce is an extraordinary agent and person. He was always there for me no matter what and for any problems he always came with a solution. He helped me purchase my first home a few years ago when I moved here from the UK and knew nothing about the housing market over here. Since then we completed close to $2m in real estate transactions together, including two profitable home sales and the purchase of my dream home. A testament to Bruce is his ability to recognize what you need even when you dont know it yourself. He knows his market better than anyone I have ever met and makes real estate transactions seem like a walk in the park. He is my agent for life.
Bruce was amazing to work with! This home sale was not an easy one, starting before Covid and ending during Covid, with me being out of state the entire time. Bruce handled every aspect of the sale for me, and did much more than would ever be expected of any realtor. He is wonderful to work with and I highly recommend his services to anyone who is in need. I have personally used Bruce for several different sale and purchase transactions and he is always far exceeded any expectations I have had. Hes professional, courteous and extremely understanding, helping out in anyway he can.
Bruce is the best hands down. We have used him twice already and would highly recommend him to anyone to use. He is professional, friendly, always on top of whats happening and always goes above and beyond whats needed.
I reached out to Bruce to help sell my home as he came highly recommended from a friend that just recently sold & bought their new home with his help, and it was truly the BEST decision we made through our selling process. From the start, Bruce was professional, always showed up, or responded to a text/email, or answered the phone. He was straight forward and honest with his opinions and recommendations when it came to selling our home... as well as throwing in some much needed constructive criticism when it came to our situation. He was extremely knowledgeable of the overall housing market, trends, what comparable homes in our area were selling for, or likely to go for, and just had this sixth sense and overall pulse on how things were going to play out. Bruce led us through the entire process from start to finish where we were never second guessing what was going on, or stressed with where we were in the "selling journey." It really eased our anxiety of selling. Bruce is very personable, extremely easy to deal with, and was positive throughout the process. Bruce was there for walkthroughs, inspections, and behind the scenes reviewing every document with us and giving sound advice. We were able to sell our home for over asking price by truly sticking to his plan for our sale, and sticking to his recommendations. I would highly recommend Bruce to anyone looking for a realtor!
Bruce was the best real estate agent that I have ever dealt with. His knowledge of the market, tenacity in getting me the best price , patients with all aspects of the negotiation process and kindness towards me and the buyers was off the charts. If I ever need another real estate agent,Bruce is hands down the guy I am going to call, and so should you!!!
As someone who was house hunting for just about two years into one of the craziest times in current history... Bruce is hands down the best realtor I worked with. Fun and personable, he genuinely listen to what I was looking for and took note of all the details which he proved time and again with every showing we went to. My only regret is that I didn't START with him and had to wait all that time to get to work with him. A delight from start to finish and I would recommend him to anyone looking right now, especially if it's their first time house hunting

Bruce was nothing short of amazing in helping me with the sale of my fathers estate. He was extremely patient, intelligent and helped guide me through every step of the process all while getting me a great sale price in extremely short time frame. I live out of state and that was no problem at all for Bruce. He took care of every single aspect from start to finish and really helped remove a great deal of stress from my life during a very difficult time. His network of referrals including attorney, CPA and home cleaning company were just as reliable as he was. I honestly can't thank him enough for everything he's done and would give him 100 stars if I could. I wouldn't hesitate to refer Bruce to anyone I know looking to sell their home. My family and I are eternally grateful
I will only ever recommend Bruce to anyone I know looking to buy/sell a home. His knowledge and expertise were invaluable to me during my home search. He answered all my calls, texts, and emails quickly. He knew my knowledge of the home buying process was minimal, and walked me through each step. Bruce found me my dream home to raise my daughters in, and for that I will be forever grateful.
Bruce is an amazing agent; he helped me buy a new home and sell the previous home. Bruce made the process so smooth I couldnt believe there are agents out there like him. Hes very knowledgable of the entire state and gives great tips on location and things to look for and anything that might affect resale value. Hes also very aware of the fair market price and excellent in negotiations. We gave one offer before settling in our current home and his predictions about the house we gave the offer on was perfect. No matter what day or time it was Bruce very responsive to emails texts and phone calls and the tons of questions I had. He truly cares about his clients like no other agent I have dealt with. IIf you are looking to buy or sell Bruce is hands down the person to go with. Look no further.

Absolutely best listing and selling experience with this realtor. Mr. Kelly has a lot of experience in pricing, marketing and negotiating which is a key factor in listing a home. Home was sold in 4 days and he was very helpful the closing process every step of the way.
We used Bruce as our realtor to purchase our first home. What I thought would be a stressful and chaotic experience was nothing of that nature. Bruce was extremely knowledgeable, thorough, and patient. Would definitely recommend Bruce to anyone and would use him to sell or buy and future properties. I cant thank him enough for helping us through this process.
Bruce did an incredible job with the sale of my home, being out of state for the sale I needed someone I could trust. Bruce kept me informed every step of the way and helped me through the process far beyond what most would. I would highly recommend having Bruce help with a sale of a property. He truly cares.
Bruce was amazing! We met Bruce at an open house and from the first words with him ,my boyfriend and I knew we liked him. He was inforamative, helpful in anyway possible, funny, honest, punctual and pretty much everything you'd want in a realtor. I would reccomend Bruce to anyone!
Bruce is a the epitome of a professional. He is open, honest and receptive to your needs as a client. His expertise of the the real estate market is superb and second to none. He diligently completes all tasks related to process of buying a home and ensures that effective communication is maintained for all concerned, especially you the customer. Bruce worked with my wife and I to help us find our forever home when numerous private sales fell through. Get a realtor, call Bruce Kelly!
I was referred to Bruce by my girlfriend and in the end, I was very happy with the outcome. From the beginning, Bruce was very attentive about everything I had to tell him and he could always be reached at all hours of the day. He always gave me his honest opinion about everything, where some realtors are only looking for the sale and their commission. Bruce took the time to listen to me and if there was a house that I wasn't sure of, he would tell me let's move on, this isn't the house for you. My first purchase went so smoothly and did not drag one bit due to his services. All in all, I would highly recommend Bruce to anyone of my friends or family members and I definitely plan on using him in the future for my next purchase. Thank you again Bruce!
Bruce came highly recommended and did not disappoint. He handled every aspect of our process in the most professional and caring way possible. He has a great way of balancing the seriousness of buying a home with the enjoyment that should come with it. Every house we looked at was viewed through a lens that focused on what was best for us; even when we started to stray from what we had originally said was important to us, Bruce helped guide us back to where we needed to be and it led us to finding our new home which couldn't be a better fit for us. Without his guidance I am confident we would not have adhered to what we knew was going to be right for us and we could have easily been persuaded into a home that would have led to much less work on his part. He unquestionably had our best interest in mind. Bruce far exceeded our expectations in terms of work ethic and responsiveness. He always made maximum effort to accommodate our schedules and made appointments immediately whenever we wanted to view a home. We saw many homes over quite a long period and never did we feel an ounce of frustration on his part. He knew we needed to find a home that was right for us and he made it happen.Bruce not only helped us find our new home, but he went above and beyond when it came to pointing us in all the right directions regarding all of the other aspects of purchasing our home. We truly trusted his recommendations and we were amazed at how easy and streamlined the entire process was. He was literally there every step of the way.I will absolutely recommend Bruce Kelly to anyone, including my closest family and friends, who are looking to buy or sell a home.Thanks Bruce!
Absolutely the most attentive and flexible realtor I have dealt with. In todays market having a realtor who communicates quickly and goes out of his way to help thru the buying and closing process is imperative to successfully getting the house you want and Bruce is that guy. I have dealt with many realtors who dont return calls and make such a big investment a nightmare and I totally recommend him for your real estate needs.

Bruce Kelly is the most professional, courteous, helpful realtor I have ever dealt with. I would recommend him to everyone I know looking for a new home. I could never have gotten through buying my home without him. 100 stars!
Everyone knows that the buying/selling of a home is one of the largest decisions and can be a very stressful event. While working with Bruce, this was not the case at all. Every detail was thoroughly covered with emphasis on what was best for us. He went out of his way to take on additional work and responsibilities for no cost other than to be accommodating and ease our burden. He was sincere, knowledgeable, and never once presented superficially. He had our best interest at heart and never hesitated to be up front and honest, even when it would mean less benefit to himself. It is evident that he prides himself on client relationships and an outstanding reputation. There is no one else I would work with other than Bruce!
I dealt with various realtors during this home buying experience. The listing & selling agents that I came in contact with were terrible! I wish I had the time to and energy to name every single one of them so no one would end up using them in the future. I very glad my path during this process lead to Bruce as he really knows what hes doing on so many levels. Hes very knowledgeable in every aspect of the process from negotiations, to dealing with the mortgage and title companies involved as well as the legal piece. For a first time buyer it can be very stressful and having a great agent makes the whole process a lot easier. I would highly recommend his services to anyone looking to buy a home or sell one!!!!
We recently sold our home with Mr Kelly as our listing agent. Not only did we sell our home, he assisted us in the purchase of our new home. Bruce is a wonderful person and realtor. He was so helpful in guiding us to our new home. His knowledge of real estate and of the areas that we were looking in was impressive. He took the time to know our needs and wants and made sure that we found our dream home. He is not just your average realtor, he takes the extra effort to make sure any problems that arise when selling and buying a home is handled with the least amount of stress to the client. He was also available for me to ask any questions that we had and he always put us at ease. He makes you feel like you are his only priority. Bruce Kelly is the only person anyone who is planning on moving should call. I truly have no negative things I could possibly say regarding him. If I ever move again I will call Bruce to help in the selling and finding of our next home.
We purchased a low cost home w/ a rehab loan. I know he did not make much in commission but he made us feel like a top priority. We did have some problems come up throughout the process, which were no fault of his, but he went out of his way to help us anyway. I dont know if we would have closed on the house if we had someone else. I highly recommend!

We started our search for a home in Toms River, NJ last May. We called the ReMax office on Lacey Road and they gave us to Bruce Kelly. We knew a little about the area because my cousin lives in Silver Ridge Park North. The first thing he asked was that we make a wish list and price range and would try to find everything on our list. He showed us many houses and said if there was a particular area we had in mind, he would try to accommodate us. He went above and beyond what we expected. Bruce was very patient, pleasant, left us alone and answered any questions we had. When we found the perfect house for us, he kept on top of the closing and even after we were in our home, he kept in touch to make sure everything was alright. Bruce is a true asset to ReMax and anyone looking for a home in Toms River area will be very happy to have him as an agent.
It was a great pleasure working with Bruce, he is very professional and easy to work with. Bruce has a great knowledge about the home market and what his clients are looking for. Bruce was always available to help with any questions, he responded immediately to any phone calls or emails. We would highly recommend Bruce to anyone looking to buy a home. Thank youMarios and Lucja
Bruce came highly recommended by past clients who recently purchased homes and were very pleased with his representation during the home buying process. As first time homebuyers, it was very important for us to have an excellent relationship with our realtor and Bruce exceeded our expectations. Bruce exemplifies what a realtor should be in regards to market knowledge, dependability, honesty and professionalism. Bruce remained attentive to all our priorities and goals and followed through in all phases of the lending process. Bruce addressed all our concerns and questions on a timely manner regardless of the hour or day of the week including weekends. Bruce meticulously planned the house showings to match our specific requirements and all our house hunting trips were productive and each one topped the one before. Bruce negotiated effectively at our instruction leading to the best possible price and terms with our purchase. Bruce also had a great network of partners and providers in the business that assisted us with other needs and provided the same outstanding customer service. Bruce remained committed to all our interests and his quality as a realtor had a significant influence on us finding the perfect home.
Bruce came highly recommended from a friend who used his services and we were not disappointed. He was personable, responsive, professional and patient. He even helped us find a better lender than we had lined up that gave us a better mortgage! He really had our best interests in mind. We would strongly recommend his services to anyone.
I'm no expert in the field of reality or had to deal with it in the past but the past year plus that me and my wife were in the market we had a few realtors to deal with and not knowing any better we couldn't tell what was good or bad till Bruce came into the scene ...he showed us what true dedication and passion was when it came to getting everything done from the first call to the handing us our keys, on point with every and all questions we had to throw at him, he would take calls to our convenience from 6am to 10pm, if he didn't have the answer at the moment we asked it was sure to be answered mins to just a few hrs of asked question, he showed us houses that our first two choice pending realtors couldn't find, he found us over 20+ houses that met our requirements, he traveled over 30+ miles in some cases just for 1-2 houses ....the man is incredibly on point with every aspect of house hunting, he investigated so much with his time we were able to save thousands on our purchase, he was referred to us by multiple people and friends who also found the perfect house cause of him ...we signed and still he is in the picture to make sure everything went smoothly, we didn't just find an excellent realtor ...we found a friend as well who still keeps in touch.Some may think this is just a courtesy, I assure you this is NOT the case, he is by far of reviews of others the real deal ....his team that backs him are also just as incredible I couldn't have gotten luckier to land someone so down to earth and with knowledge... I will be going out of my way to refer him and his 5 star team to anyone looking for a home.
I can't say enough great things about the service Mr. Kelly provides as a real estate agent. I typically do not write reviews because the service I receive is either just average or it's just not memorable enough to write about. I was driven to take the time to write this review because I want to help others find the diamond-in-the-rough agent within the normally cut-throat real estate world. First and foremost I was highly impressed with the level of honesty Bruce had as we toured homes together. He pointed out many things I would have never noticed as a first time buyer and it showed he wasn't just trying to make a buck- he genuinely cared about our secure future in our new home. This helped develop a strong trust as we continued on the intimidating process of buying our first home. Secondly, he was always there when we had questions and not only was he quick to respond, his responses were detailed and exhibited vast knowledge regarding all aspects of the home buying process.Bruce is actually the one that found the home we ultimately decided on. If it wasn't for his suggestion to expand our search, we would have never found the dream home we now have. He had a great knack for adhering to our wishes while respectfully suggesting alternatives and I am glad he did. We could not be happier in our new house and I truly have Bruce to thank for it.I think the thing that made this journey so pain-free was the recommendations Bruce provided for all other facets of the home buying process once the paperwork started rolling in. He provided quality recommendations for our lawyer, mortgage broker and insurance broker. I had not one issue with any of them and they were all so nice and helpful. His negotiation skills were probably the most impressive. We were in contention for a a highly desired house and at no point did I worry that he couldn't drive the deal home because he kept me updated on every move being made and his suggestions on next steps. In sum, Bruce did an amazing job quarterbacking this whole process for us from front to back. At no time did I feel out of the loop, unsupported or unsure where to go next. This was huge for my fiance and I as we were clueless about how any of this worked. If you want rockstar service and a one-stop shop for all your home buying needs, Bruce is your guy. A sincere thank you to you Mr. Kelly.
I cannot say enough great things about Bruce. He helped my husband and I find the perfect rental property. He was very patient, extremely knowledgeable and just a genuinely nice person. He made the process such an enjoyable experience and we cannot wait to work with him again!
Bruce went above and beyond while helping me purchase my first home. His knowledge and expertise helped put my mind at ease and I felt completely comfortable every step of the way with him. I can not put into words how grateful I am that he was my realtor. Buying a home can be a very overwhelming process and he was there to answer every question I had and walk me through what needed to be done. I have been and will continue to recommend Bruce to anyone I know that is looking to buy a home.

Bruce was amazing. He made the process of selecting our 1st home so great. He got to know us and really understood what we wanted. Now we've been in our home almost a year. And we could not be happier. Bruce if you read this. I want to say Thank You for everything.
